Scoring on the SAT II Chemistry is the same as scoring
for all other SAT II tests. For every right answer, you earn one
point. For every wrong answer, you lose 1
/4 of a point. For
each question you leave blank, you earn zero points. These points
combined equal your raw score. ETS converts your raw score to a
scaled score using a curve tailored to the particular test you take.
We’ve included a raw-to-scaled conversion chart below so you can
translate your raw score on a practice test into scaled scores.

This chart shows you that your score doesn’t
plummet with every question you can’t answer confidently. You can
do very well on this test without knowing or answering everything.
The key to doing well on the SAT II Chemistry is to follow a strategy
that ensures you will see and answer all the questions you can answer,
while intelligently guessing on those slightly fuzzier questions.
